Sochaux coach Eric Hely can count upon a near-full strength side as the club welcome Paris Saint-Germain to the Stade Auguste Bonal in the headline game on Sunday.

Sebastien Roudet is likely to be preferred to Ismail Yartey on the left side of midfield, whilst new signing Rafael Dias tussles with Cedric Bakambu and Edouard Butin for the right to partner top scorer Sloan Privat up front.

Thierry Doubai and Sanjin Prcic remain sidelined for the hosts, who have lost seven of their last eight against the capital club.

Meanwhile, David Beckham-mania awaits the small town of Montbeliard near the Swiss border with the former England captain in line to make his debut for the Ligue 1 leaders, having watched them beat Valencia 2-1 in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Thiago Motta and Thiago Silva remain sidelined, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic - sent off at Mestalla - expected to keep his place, Clement Chantome is also in the frame for a starting recall.
